Well, i am on F10 and the same happens with me (ie: both get connected, when 
both are present and active).

Make sure that you have the wired connection set to connect automatically (ie: 
right click the NM applet, select the eth0 device and Edit, the 'connect 
automatically' option should be selected).

In any case, you should not have to pull the network cable and push it back it, 
left clicking the NM applet and selecting the connection should start the NM 
spins :)

HTH,
